Set a timer or a metronome. Breath every 5 seconds/Measure if you are using a metronome. I usually turn on a slow song and breath to the tempo of it :)

Drink lots of water or if possible eat your favourite food. Also if possible listen to your favourite music or any tv show. Just divert your mind from the main subject of being panic.
And try the breathing exercise, breathe in on the count of 4 and exhale at the count of 8. This helps.

Try to take slow, deep breaths. It will both start to calm you down and help you regain control over your breathing.

Restoring your breathing during a panic attack is vital. What I find most effective for me, is to focus on my breathing, breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 10 and keep going until your breathing regulates.

First, slow down. Try to relax every muscle in your body. Then, take slow, deep breaths- about 5 seconds in and 10 seconds out.
